All admission authorities are required to formally consult if they want to make any changes to their schools’ admission arrangements for the following school year. They also have to consult on their schools’ admission arrangements at least once every 7 years, even if there have been no changes during that period.
West Northamptonshire Council (WNC) co-ordinates an annual school admissions consultation on behalf of all schools in the council area, regardless of who the admission authority is, should they request to be included. The aim of the consultation is to raise awareness of any proposed changes to school admission arrangements and ensure that these are subject to appropriate consultation.
The consultation on school admission arrangements for September 2024 is now open. The consultation will run from Monday 14 November 2022 to Saturday 31 December 2022.
West Northamptonshire Council is the admission authority for all Community and Voluntary Controlled schools in the council area.
The local authority is not proposing any changes to the admission arrangements for its schools.
The school governing body is the admission authority for all Foundation and Voluntary Aided schools in the council area, whilst the admission authority for Academies, Free Schools and UTCs is their Academy Trust.
